    Acer AspireRevo R3610 Review: An Affordable Nettop That Makes a Great HTPC

    I've spent a considerable amount of effort trying to convince you to get an HTPC, and nettops like the AspireRevo R3610 are a big reason why. It's affordable at $330, and it delivers a quality HD video experience. More »

    Remainders - The Good, Bad and Ugly Things We Didn't Post (and Why)

    Abandon all hope, ye who enter Remainders. Today, we've got: Windows 7 needs less tech support than anyone expected, Acer's Olympic-themed laptop, Sprint's Android phones skipping Android 2.0, and a leaked Panasonic (non-Micro) Four Thirds camera. More »

    Rumor: The Google Chrome Netbook

    Google's already said you'll need to buy a Chrome OS machine if you want it officially, but if TechCrunch's sources are right, they could be launching Google-branded hardware for the platform, much like they're doing with the Nexus One. More »

    Remainders - The Good, Bad and Ugly Things We Didn't Post (and Why)

    Today in the Gizmodo junk cabinet called Remainders we've got another report of a Verizon iPhone, a slightly-skinned new Android phone from Acer, death by exploding gum, and a questionable report of Microsoft being kind of a dick. Onward! More »

    Acer's Aspire 8942G-728G1280TWN: World's First, Longest-Named DX11 Notebook

    The timing and price are up in the air, but Acer's next high-end gaming notebook will be the first using DirectX 11 graphics. It's also going to be insane. More »

    Acer's Big Ass Aspire 8940: 18.4-inch Screen, Core i7 Processor

    With an oversized LED-backlit 18.4-inch display, Core i7 720QM processor, and Windows 7, the Aspire 8940 is set to face off with HP's Pavilion dv8 and Toshiba's Qosmio X500 in the uber desktop replacement stakes. And it'll probably cost less. More »

    PC Pro looked into the bloatware included on new laptops by major manufacturers, measuring how memory, HDD space and boot times are negatively effected. And good lord, it's worse than you thought. More »

    Acer AS1410 Notebook Is Netbook-Sized and Netbook-Priced

    Acer's new AS1410 notebook, a 11.6-incher, may look like a netbook and start at $400, but it's definitely a step up: It's got a multitouch trackpad, Celeron proc, Windows 7 and HDMI-out, plus a full-sized keyboard. More »

    Acer Lets Slip the Liquid's Custom Android Interface, White-Hot Specs

    Acer gave us the basics yesterday, announcing their intent to (good god, finally) make a Snapdragon-based Android phone, and not much else. Today, cue stage two of the unnecessarily staggered announcement: the juicy leaks. (Updated with video) More »

    Acer AspireRevo Upgraded: Windows 7, Ion Graphics, Dual-Core Atom CPU

    Acer's funky book-sized AspireRevo nettop just got a little better…and a touch pricier. This R3610-U9012 model has Windows 7, a dual-core Atom 330 processor, double the RAM (2GB), and full Ion graphics. It also keeps support for 1080p HDMI output. More »

    Acer Leapfrogs Dell to Number 2 Globally, But Dell and HP Still Rule the U.S.

    Acer rightly cops a lot of stick about build-quality, but as predicted, they've passed Dell to second spot in worldwide sales. Separate research from Gartner and IDC also ranks Acer third in the U.S, ahead of Apple in fourth place. More »

    Acer Aspire Z5610 Emphasizes Style Over Speed

    The Z5610 seems like a better-looking, but less powerful version of the Gateway ZX6800. Both all-in-one PCs have 23-inch (1080p) multi-touch displays, and Windows 7. But the Z5610's 2.6GHz Pentium E5300 processor won't match the Gateway's Core 2 Quad chip. More »

    Acer's Aspire 5738PG 3D Laptop To Launch October 22, Come With Tacky Glasses

    The Aspire 5738PG uses combination of software, hardware, coated glass, and ugly polarized glasses to give you awesome 3D games, porn that pops right out, and a rather sharp display. And while there's no party, it's launching alongside Windows 7. More »

    Acer Liquid Finally Gives Android the Snapdragon It Deserves

    The day Qualcomm's crushingly fast Snapdragon platform showed up in its first phone was the very day I started desperately wanting it to run Android. It had to happen. And now, courtesy of Acer, it will. More »

    Acer's 11.6-Inch Aspire Timeline AS1810TZ Shows Signs of A Netbook Identity Crisis

    The Acer Timeline AS1810TZ has got to be confused when it looks in the mirror. Am I a netbook? Notebook? Acer has added the 11.6-incher to its Timeline family since it now has a Intel ULV (not Atom) processor. More »

    Acer Slaps a Multitouch Screen On Its $800 Aspire 5738PG

    You wouldn't know it by looking at it, but that is Acer's new multitouch laptop. Sort of like Lenovo has done with the T400s, Acer has put a multitouch screen on an existing clamshell notebook. More »
